| Description | A formula has been developed to correct laser ranging data for the effects of horizontal refractivity gradients. The formula requires the values of the horizontal pressure and temperature gradients at the laser site. The accuracy of this technique was evaluated by comparing the formula with range corrections which were computed by ray tracing. |
